1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Interleukin 17 (IL-17) is important in infection and autoimmunity; how it signals remains poorly understood. In this study, we identified the ubiquitin-specific protease USP25 as a negative regulator of IL-17-mediated signaling and inflammation. Overexpression of USP25 inhibited IL-17-triggered signaling, whereas USP25 deficiency resulted in more phosphorylation of the inhibitor IκBα and kinase Jnk and higher expression of chemokines and cytokines, as well as a prolonged half-life for chemokine CXCL1-encoding mRNA after treatment with IL-17. Consistent with that, Usp25(-/-) mice showed greater sensitivity to IL-17-dependent inflammation and autoimmunity in vivo. Mechanistically, stimulation with IL-17 induced the association of USP25 with the adaptors TRAF5 and TRAF6, and USP25 induced removal of Lys63-linked ubiquitination in TRAF5 and TRAF6 mediated by the adaptor Act1. Thus, our results demonstrate that USP25 is a deubiquitinating enzyme (DUB) that negatively regulates IL-17-triggered signaling.
